Chapter 3 Disclaimer: I do not own hellsing or any affiliated names or characters. This chapter you will notice things might be a little off , please forgive me.
Everything was starting to look like it was on the mend. Commander Bilodeau was working out wonderfully, his leadership skills were unsurpassing. The new recruits Seras dug up were intelligent (for the most part), and willing to learn. Those were the only requirements. Well, almost. You also had to have guts, and strength. Emotional and physical. Integra leaned back in her chair in satisfaction at the advancements that were happening. Gradually, in her solitude, her thoughts started to drift to Alucard's intense gaze and gorgeous grin. Pulling herself out of her daydream, she furiously reminded herself of their relationship as pet and master. Looking for something to distract her wandering thoughts, she suddenly heard a noise. It was Alucard, in her office, sitting there as if it was the most natural thing in the world. He was still wearing that cocky grin."Hello master. Been thinking about me lately?" He smiled even wider than before , making Integra turn red in the face. "How dare you intrude my thoughts!" Alucard laughed and said "Oh but master, don't you realize that it wasn't me? It was you thinking of the temptation of my offer." Integra sneered and pointed at the door. "It won't stop master" he shouted at her angrily with the shame of rejection about him. Integra, now fully pissed off, got up in a fit of anger and headed for her only outlet: the range.

Furiously tossing her jacket to a chair sitting in a corner, and pulling out her gun, she stomped over to the position in front of the first target. With a sudden shock, she noticed that she was not alone.A couple of targets over was Commander Bilodeau. Not feeling the need to scare off any staff, she swallowed her anger and gave him a polite smile, asking gently "So, what are you doing down here?" He gave her a shy glance, while muttering "Just tuning up. I have gotten a bit rusty lately." He then proceeded to fire 5 rounds down range, forming a perfect circle. "Rusty? Wow!" Integra stared in amazement that someone was actually as good as her, then offered "Well Commander Bilodeau, looks like you are back in shape. Care for a little competition?" His grin grew wide and he nodded in amazement that the great last member of the Hellsing family was going to have a marksmanship competition with him. "10 rounds. The most in the head wins." Integra listed the rules for his benefit. For a couple minutes all that was heard was the bullets flying downrange with pinpoint accuracy and the competiters heavy breathing. Integra's and Bilodeau's bullets were all both in a tiny circle right were the spot between the eyes would have been. "Looks like it is a tie, then. What is you're first name? "Integra felt the silence was unbearable between them. If he were to be a suitable replacement for Fargason, they were going to have to get along, and be friends." He looked straight in her eyes and let Integra see the pride, honor and potential that filled his heart. "James. It was my mother's idea," he added jokingly. "Right then." Integra put on her typical business face and turned to escape his all too calm gaze. "Wait! I mean.. do you think that we could do this again sometime?" Integra turned around again and smiled warmly. "Of course". She left, and reminded herself that she must keep a profesional relationship with her suboridinates. She must not get too attached. After all, this is a dangerous business, and it isn't all that pleasnant to get hurt more than once. Finding herself extremely tierd, she went to go back to her bedroom. On the way there, Seras was walking by with a very self satisfied smirk on her face. "Sir Integra!" She called out. "Just wanted to let you know that the new recruits will be ready to work tommorow. Commander Bilodeau and I have made excellent progress." Her face was flushed with the pride of the very thought of pleasing her master's master. "Integra patted the shoulder of the too cute Seras and let her know her satisfaction with a simple thank you.
In her nightgown, she slipped into bed praying that her dreams would not contain any creepy prophecies and the face of Alucard. Thankfully, there were none. *IN ALUCARD'S CHAMBER...* Alucard was troubled this night. He had a pretty good idea why too. Integra was being herself, trying to control everything. She thought she was doing a pretty good job at regaining hellsing. Now he was starting to get frustrated with the thought of his beloved master. He needed to get away, do something other than obsess about Integra. Leaving the building and taking to the streets, he wandered the isolated area with the look of a man with no where to go except forwards. Coming to a derilect old building, with the distinct smell of mold about it, he sensed something... well, unnatural. Trusting his instincts, he opened the door carefully. He had started to get reckless when going places in his neverending search for a worthy oppenent. The building was dark and errie, so, of course, he went on. Half way up the creaky stairwell, he saw a door to his right that the unnatural sensation was coming from. Bolting the rest of the stairs, he kicked the ancient door open. In the darkened room he managed to make out the forms of several huddled figures in the centre of the room. They appered to be alone, with no higher power watching over them. It was like they were like that on purpose. Taking a cautious step in the rooms, Alucard looked suspicously about the room, taking in nothing unusal other than the fact that there was a very strong feeling about something not right in this room, and the figures in the middle of the room. With his heightend senses, he heard a faint footstep behind him. Whipping around, there was again nothing there. "What the hell?" he muttered in extreme agitation. Continuing his investigation of the room, he saw that the huddled figures were not there anymore. In fact, they were surrounding him.Moving in closer and closer. Alucard gave a smile."Finally, a little action!"He declared with excitement. He didn't know why he was getting all jumpy over only about 20 freaks though. "Better than nothing", he thought as he pulled out his specially designed,demon killing, sweet assed handgun. As he rapid fired one shot into each of their heads, all the time laughing insanely, Alucard was reminded fondly why he stayed with the hellsings. Stepping on a freak's lifeless skull and crushing it into the dusty floor, he knew that Integra still had a lot of work to do, that she didn't realize she had. He had to get back. Dawn was coming. He also knew he could'nt bear to crush Integra with tonight's news. She would be destavated by the fact that her efforts werent working. Alucard knew she would find out sooner or later on her own, so might as well let it be for now. But for now, he had some worried pacing and entertaining Seras to do. * That's the 3rd chapter, hope you will read on as I get them done. ttfn
